I Get Offered To Do

I've Been Blessed With The Opportunity To Express The Views Of Black People Who Otherwise Don't Have Access To Power And The Media. I Have To Take Advantage Of That While I'm Still Bankable.

I Respect The Audience's Intelligence A Lot, And That's Why I Don't Try To Go For The Lowest Common Denominator.

I Think Black People Have To Be In Control Of Their Own Image Because Film Is A Powerful Medium. We Can't Just Sit Back And Let Other People Define Our Existence.

A Spine To My Films That's Become More Evident To Me Is That Many Are About The Choices People Make, And The Reverberations Of Those Choices. You Go This Way, Or That Way, And Either Way, There's Going To Be Consequences.

We Grew Up In A Very Creative Environment And Were Exposed To The Arts At A Very Young Age, So It's Not A Surprise That All Of Us Are In Some Form Of The Arts.
